Congratulations my fellow citizens! We now know what faith Mr. Obama truly claims as his own. He is an American! What's that you say? America is a country not a faith?
Not according to the man sitting in the oval office who declared today that “Being an American is not a matter of blood or birth, it’s a matter of faith,”
To be fair, this was a speech he was giving about the illegal alien situation, which doesn't really make it much better, but gives you some context. However, if this president is really proposing the idea that citizenship is a matter of faith, then why have immigration laws at all?
Either way, had a conservative said something this out of whack, this out of touch and this nonsensical, the mainstream press would have been all over him or her. (Not to mention the ACLU. Where's the outrage over this psuedo establishment of a state religion? Where are the objections over their precious Jeffersonian out-of-context "separation of church and state"?)
Truth is objective, not subjective. Something either is true or it is not and no amount of idealistic bibble-babble can change the truth. Citizenship is, in fact, a matter of blood and birth. One may become a citizen of this nation by sacrificing one's citizenship in any other nation, but faith has nothing to do with citizenship. Except, perhaps, for citizenship in the kingdom of heaven.
"Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding."~ Prov 22:23

We the People or Obama the king?
A New York Times article entitled " In Health Talks, President Is Hands-Off No More " came out today.The first paragraph says: "President Obama has taken full control of the health care negotiations, casting himself for the first time in the role of mediator between the House and Senate during a 72-hour marathon of talks that have turned his White House into a de facto Congressional conference. "
How very nice that Congressional Democrats are willing to share what they are doing with the president, when they have been unwilling to show their employers, the American people, what they are doing to the future of our health care system.
I thought it was the role of Congress to craft legislation and the role of the president to give it his approval or his veto.
"When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn. "~ Prov 29:2
